John deere 350 dozer master engine clutch manual#
If you dont have a tech manual I would highly recommend getting one before installing something incorrect. Make sure you set the fingers on the pressure plate with the JD-7 guage before you attach it to the drum, Lavoy can hook you up with everything you need including the JD-7 guage.

Install pressure plate and tighten nuts to 18-22 ft-lbs.įROM ME:The first fiber disk may have some bow to it once tightened down to torque. Starting with a composition facing against the brake drum, alternately install the eight composition facings and seven steel plates. Install drive shaft with hub and pilot bearing attached inside brake drum. (make sure bearing is installed with shielded side towards splines on steering clutch drive shaft).

Pack bearing (pilot bearing)cavity in final drive shaft about half full with high temp grease. From the TECH manual: Make sure snap ring is in inner groove in final drive shaft and slip brake drum into position. They should be all one complete pack when installed correctly. There should not be any separation between any of the fiber or steel disks. If not standard track is the tool of trade I hope that you are able to get it back runing soon as possible As my tech manual is for a 350C I cant get too deep in the repair but I will monitor. If you can slip the tracks ground conditions are right for wide track. If you find that the metal plates are turning blue it is a indication of way to mutch slip take a plate and lay it flat if plates heat they worp and the whole synario gets worse! Are the fibers flat? I would replace fibres and plates together and when the fibers and plates are instaled new in an old housing make shure the housing face is in good condition then when all plates and fibers are instaled the clutch should have no compresion when tightening the cover plate bolts I have a 350 C wide track and these clutches are different on the newer ones like mine but not that mutch the wide track are notorious for beeing hard on them selves I will only use mine in mud holes that I would not be able to work in with my other dozers as the track whear is big $ on dry going and the clutches are the week spot when on good going. SORRY MY POST IS SO LONG BUT I DONT KNOW HOW ELSE TO TELL IT ANY IDEAS GUYS.ĭONT KNOW IF THIS HAD ANTHING TO DO WITH OUR PROBLEM OR NOTĪPPRECIATE ALL THE HELP AS WE ARE NEWBYS WITH DOZERS ĪLSO FOUND THAT THE SIDE THAT THEY ARE WORKING ON HAD THE BRAKES ADJUSTED WEIRD, THE BOLT THATS SUPPOSED TO TOUCH IN THE ADJUSTMENT WASNT TOUCHING (HE THINKS THE BRAKE ROD FOR THE FOOT PETAL IS TOO TIGHT ) ALSO FOUND THAT THE THROW OUT BEARING WAS STICKING WHEN MOVED, WHEN IT WAS APART SO FIGURE IT IS WHEN ITS TOGETHER. BUT BEFORE THEY WASTE ANOTHER PLATE I WOULD LOVE TO FIND OUT FOR SURE. THE FIBER ONE THAT WAS BROKE LOOKED LIKE TOO MUCH PRESSURE HAD PUSHED THE OUTSIDE DOWN AND THE INSIDE STAYED ON THE SNAP RING, CAUSING IT TO BOW AND CRACK. ON FURTHER INSPECTION OF PLATES THE METAL ONES HAD TURNED BLUE (SURE SIGN OF BEING HOT) STILL HAVENT GOT ANY ANSWER ON THE PLACEMENT OF THE FIRST FIBER DISK, HUSBAND TRYED IT OUT BY PUTTING IT TOGETHER AND IT FITS IN FRONT OF THE SNAP RING ON THE HUB. OK WE HAVE NEW METAL AND FIBER PLATES TO GO BACK IN. Sorry im not more techinical im doing this from their discriptions. oh bye the way its being used to clear 15 to 20 yrs of bushes and trees on out family farm any help would be apreciatedĪlso is there any way to get specs on drum to see if it has too much wear on it.

they were wondering wheather they should have replaced the drum.

also water seeps into the box where you adjust the clutches if they leave it uncovered. it has wide tracks (on it when bought)could this cause them to wear out sooner and why only the side we replaced. one question is what caused it to do this so soon after replacing them. my hubby and son have bought a jd 350 ,dont know the yr i think it was made in the 70,s from some of the paper work that came with itĪny who, they have had to replace the steering clutch's-throw out bearing-īrake band and pressure plate on one side, this was just a few working hrs ago, they were after market parts not oem.they now have the same problem with it that they started with "slipping".
